Jeff Evely gets the first fine in Nova Scotia for venturing into the woods; $28,872.50

Its not law or is it? Mandates are not laws. Ignore all mandates!

He will win in court

And I don't think the province would like the optics of jailing a guy for walking in the woods, but I could be wrong.

@ChevChelios stolen elections have consequences

on the flipside what if there is intelligence saying that rouge elements are gonna burn down the forests? How would you make sure that this doesnt happen? How would you catch the ppl responsible.

I would think just coming out and saying it would make sense but what do i know

What do you guys think? Does this case get dismissed immediately?

@TOPDAWG
You asked whether all COVID‑related fines in Canada were thrown out. The truth is more nuanced:




What actually happened​


Some fines were indeed overturned​


  • In Ontario and British Columbia, The Democracy Fund successfully had roughly $1 million in COVID‑related fines dismissed (TNC News).
  • In Alberta, fines levied on Pastor Artur Pawlowski were overturned by the Court of Appeal due to procedural issues—he was reimbursed for fines already paid (TNC News).

But many fines stood—and some were even upheld​


  • A BC Supreme Court judge upheld a $1,500 fine under the Quarantine Act for failing to provide a quarantine plan via ArriveCAN (Peace Arch News).
  • In Quebec, individuals who challenged fines were denied reimbursement—its Superior Court deemed the appeals moot and the Supreme Court refused to hear them (CityNews Montreal).

In practice, only a portion were dismissed​


  • Data shows that of roughly $15 million in COVID quarantine fines levied in 2022, only about $905,000 had been paid—many were canceled, stayed, or simply not paid yet (Lethbridge News Now).



Summary:​


  • Not all COVID fines were thrown out, though some high-profile cases were successfully overturned.
  • Many fines remain in force, upheld through courts or simply not yet resolved.

Would you like help digging deeper into specific provinces or cases to better understand how appeals fared in your area?
 
In Newfoundland's case it is lawful order but you can choose to ignore it. New Brunswick announcement has no legal backing I can find for them to enforce it.
